Publisher's Note

Celebrating One Year of Techos y Más

Roofing Contractor Publisher Jill Bloom celebrates one year of Techos y Más and commits to building bridges to success for Latino contractors

Walk onto any residential or commercial roofing jobsite across America, and you'll likely see what we see every day: Latino roofing contractors leading crews with precision, solving complex problems, and delivering the kind of quality work that keeps customers coming back. These professionals aren't just participants in our industry; they're driving it forward.

At Roofing Contractor, we've watched this reality unfold for years. Yet when we searched for business resources created specifically for Spanish-speaking contractors, we found a troubling gap. Sure, there were generic business guides translated into Spanish, but nothing that truly understood the unique challenges and opportunities Latino roofing contractors face every day.

These professionals aren't just participants in our industry, they're driving it forward.

That led us to launch Techos y Más in 2024. Working with our editorial team and partners like Latinos en Roofing, GAF, Owens Corning, Carlisle, SRS Distribution, and others, we set out to create something different. It's not just content offered in Spanish, but resources that can help Latino roofing professionals build careers from the ground up.

The response? Overwhelming! Roofing contractors have been hungry for this kind of targeted support, and the engagement we're seeing tells us we're on the right track.

Techos y Más provides you with practical business tools in Spanish, along with the kind of community connection that makes the difference between surviving and thriving in this industry. As we celebrate Latino Heritage Month (Sept. 15 to Oct. 15), we're reminded that this isn't just about business resources; it's about recognizing and investing in the entrepreneurial spirit and exceptional craftsmanship that Latino contractors bring to our industry every single day.

Sign Up for the Techos y Más Newsletter

Registration is free and once you're in, you get access to everything we're building. Our digital library features articles tackling real business challenges, video content from successful Latino contractors sharing their insights, and podcasts you can listen to while driving between jobsites. We also conduct exclusive interviews with Latino entrepreneurs who've built substantial roofing businesses and their real breakdowns of how they did it.

Techos y Más LIVE: December 3, 2025

This year, we're taking things further with Techos y Más LIVE in Arlington, Texas. This full-day event represents something historic for us, as we dedicate an entire day specifically to Spanish-speaking contractors.

The date matters: Dec. 3, 2025, the day before Best of Success starts. We planned it this way deliberately. Attendees receive Spanish-language business education tailored to their needs and can then attend the broader industry conference on Dec. 4-5.

The agenda focuses on actionable content. We're covering hiring strategies that actually work, business growth tactics for sustainable profitability, insurance and legal issues that trip up contractors, digital marketing approaches that don't require huge budgets, and real talk with Latino leaders who've succeeded in roofing. To learn more, register, or sign up for ongoing updates and free resources, visit our Best of Success website.

Juntos, we're building something bigger.
